How is it possible to do the BPO report remotely without having any knowledge about the local market?

Before we start our research, we search the Subject property address on the Google® or Bing® maps to understand the probable location influence (i.e., railway tracks, power lines, commercial activity, water bodies, schools, views etc.) on the subject property. And we also consider the online neighborhood statistics websites like Zillow® to understand the current market forces for the zip code. We will also use the market summary from the respective MLS sites; this gives us a fair understanding of the market at large. We also expect inputs from our Clients in special circumstances.

How you people got trained in valuation of the property?

Founders of our Firm are working in this domain for a decade now and we all inherit their experience and knowledge. Our founders have seen the ups and downs of this industry from a close distance and they can foresee its future. We have the knowledge of how the Mortgage Servicing industry works and how the BPOs are done, why/when and to whom it’s needed. Also, we keep getting constant feedbacks from our Clients, requests from BPO Companies for revisions. We make use of all of this information to improve our understanding about the inputs required to complete a good property valuation. Some of our Clients have more than 25 years experience in this industry who have started when BPOs were done on a paper written by hand.

Are you open on Sundays or holidays?

We work on all days throughout the year. On Sundays and holidays we will have a thin line of staff to take care of any urgent requirements.
